This could go in either the Inuyasha Anime or Manga section, but since Rumiko Takahashi "directs" the manga, I'll be aiming this tidbit of madness in her direction.
lol, because this realization hit with a "Well, duh!" pang in the head, I'll present it logically, with the question in mind of WHY HADN'T ANYONE THOUGHT OF THIS EARLIER:
Fact: Miroku has the deadly Kazaana weapon.
Another Fact: It will someday kill him.
Yet Another Fact: The Kazaana will disappear if Naraku is killed.
Conclusion: Naraku must be killed before the Kazaana kills Miroku.
Okay, we already know that stuff, so . . .
Idea: Naraku is not killed in time.
Based on Idea: Miroku is screwed. The Kazaana kills him.
BUT, in THEORY: Miroku just cuts his hand off. He's okay! -- but lives the rest of his life as a one-handed groping pervert. Okay, so he's not okay . . .
Hm, nevermind. Maybe that already answered the question. :P
Still, isn't it odd that that idea has not occurred to any of the Inu-tachi during the entire series? Though it may be possible the Kazaana delves deeper into Miroku's arm than just his hand, but when you think about it, it's kind of like a "Whoops! That was easy!" type of realization.
Just a little something that came up during Art Class today. :P

besides IF he is a one handed groping monster. That gets to be a rather amusing picture anyway. I must say that I saw a fan fic someone had wrote that was just the scenario. IT wasn't well written but it was a look at it.

Confession time - I'm a fanfic junkie...
There was one fanfic (pretty well-done) where after Naraku was defeated the Kazaana did NOT disappear - so Miroku did end up cutting off his hand. However, before he did so, he got in all the Sango groping that he could...

On further thought, Sesshoumaru would also probably have to kill him for copying his style. ONE one-armed character is cutting-edge fashion, TWO is just redundant.

I also think that it would actually end up like a giant vacuum tube. Y'know... like when you take an attachment off of a vacuum and all you have is either the extension arm or something left. Heee....

Ew?
I don't know why, but vacuum tube arm just sounds really gross... Like if he cut of his hand, he'd have this bloodied stump with a sucking hole in the middle of it...
Okay, enough imagining. =P
